Nope. Only thing you should have to worry about is the O-ring that goes on the pickup tube to the oil pump. Make sure you get it in there just right and dont pinch it or you'll have oil pressure issues.

no gasket to block. The only thing you need are the 4 bolts and a new oil pump oring.

Best bet is to go to the dealer. Its only about 3 or 4 dollars.
